Description

Veterans are professional fighters that take up arms for pay or to protect something they believe in or value. Their ranks include soldiers retired from long service and warriors who never served anyone but themselves. This typically elven veteran has specific training that allows them to magically manipulate their weapons in battle, allowing them to move through targets with an unnatural, fluid grace, and to switch weapons with dizzying speed.
